Rare pen kits - Sterling silver

[carlmorrell]

I bought these pen kits over ten years ago. I ordered them from Craft Supplies UK. Surprised the package came from Woodchuckers in Ontario BC. The kits were pretty expensive back then, I think over $25. I have 7 kits, plus one opened one with the blanks glued up.

They were called Ambassadors, Rollerball.

Anyhow, I made one, and decided not to make the rest. Mainly because of concerns over tarnishing. I did experiment with one kit. Right out of the bag, handled with gloves, into my powdercoating setup. I used clear powder and had no problems with tarnish after that. The one completed pen I still have, did not have any clear on it.

Is anyone interested in these? Got anything fun to trade?

do you have bushings for it?

Sharon,

I had to make my own bushing for them. I used brass. I really don't know where they are :-(

Sorry I am slow... Too many distractions.

Thank you everyone for your interest. As our colleague Seamus has pointed out, I am going to send him 6. Will keep the 1 kit for down the road!
